Cat.No: 227658 The Last Florentine Republic. Cecil Roth.

The Last Florentine Republic

New York: Russell & Russell, 1968. Hardcover. Unpaginated preliminaries (including a short bibliography), 388p., hardbound in green cloth boards and brodart-protected dust jacket. Evidently photo-reproduced, particularly nice work that one could assume to be original presswork; were unbound texts in storage awaiting attention? At any rate, clean, sound and unmarked, an unblemished copy. The R&R dj is odd: it is made of tobacco-brown stock only a rung or two up from kraft wrap, has no decoration, bears Roth's name simply as "Roth", title appears as a subtitle that is subscribed to the sizeable numerals "1175," and is without spine titling. However, the dj's brodart is archival-grade and covers fully.

The Russell reprint (R & R a division of Atheneum) was made "by arrangement with Cecil Roth" directly, per the copyright page.
